Beautiful followers, moving forward, please don’t engage with any Yoons, GC’s or the right wing of the Indy movement in comments to my tweets. It’s clear that we can’t reason with crazy, or fix stupidity. Better to starve it of oxygen until it burns out. 🏴🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
There's a very interesting connection between Mark Zuckerberg's right-wing turn and the guy who might be the most powerful person in American media. I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere, so...
A thread.
Did you find this video unsettling and can't place why? Time for a less fun Ms. Frizzle lesson:
How mom-run “girl influencer” accounts knowingly exploit, commodify, and cater content of their children to pedophiles 🧵
Dominique Pelicot, French man who drugged+raped his wife, brought men from the internet to rape her, filmed the rapes, plus drugged, raped, photographed his unconscious daughter, was found guilty.
This is the rapist. Show him. Stop using his wife’s picture to report his crimes.
Any other fellow Scots have a right good chuckle when Americans decide to have a debate about our history and self righteously butcher all the details? 😂
@mwmoedinger In Scotland school tends to start at 9am but we have breakfast clubs for kids who need dropped off earlier and after school care that runs till 6pm for working parents. Most kids walk to school or get a school bus if it’s a large catchment area.
@angryblaqwoman I’m living with family right now and I’m very intrigued by the habits and behaviour of the straight man in the house. I’m like the Lesbian David Attenborough in here, documenting the man ways and confirming they are bizarre creatures I’m glad I don’t encounter often 😂
@stomababe I’m young, I’ve had lots of surgery on my legs and riddled with bone disease and arthritis. I walk unaided mostly and if all my scars are covered most people wouldn’t know I’m disabled but more than a few minutes standing and I’m in agonising pain for days. Horrible comment 🙄
People here ask me a lot what I miss about America. So I think about it a lot. I miss the food and the wide open spaces, especially the Mojave Desert. I miss my Toyota pickup truck with the camper shell. I miss my friends.
But really, that's about it. Everything else I have.
I’m a consultant in private practice in London and I treat patients covered by private medical insurance every day.
If you think it’s better in the UK, think again.
I’ll share some stories I and my colleagues see every day. After reading these please DM me or share your own 🧵
@owenjonesjourno Sounds similar to when I had gastritis and it took months for anyone to figure out what was actually wrong! Keep taking the Lansoprazole for 2 weeks and it usually clears up. Hope you feel better soon! Maybe look up Fodmapp diets to help eat.
Disgusted by the people in the U.K. who are slating the NHS and arguing for private insurance. Yes the NHS is starved of funding but the response is the Govt providing the funding it needs. Take a sec to read what Americans are saying about private insurance!
@punishedgarage I’m not American but being Scottish, I can agree that wealthy Americans do respect how a whisky should be consumed. They know that ice in whisky is offensive and they use their finest crystal for it. Likely Jack Daniel’s in that glass, certainly not Single Malt.
Happy St Andrew's Day!
It's Scotland's National Day and a celebration of all things Scottish, so here are two of the country's symbols combined.
The Unicorn and the Saltire!
People always give me a strange look when they find out Scotland's National animal is the Unicorn...
I had some things to say about this because of course I did. 🧵
"I'm Mvskoke and Semvnole. We lived in wooden long houses traditionally. They were permanent housing centered around a town square. We had at least 50 Tribal Towns which were organized into the largest governmental
@BraddrofliT I’m a “biological woman” but I have more masculine features due to a hormonal disease. I’ve never had a trans person question my sex but I’ve had plenty of fellow “biological women” do it, because I don’t fit their very narrow, racist, misogynistic view of what a woman is.
